OYSTERS - MALPEQUE LARGE CHOICE (PEI)

Harvested from the pristine waters of Malpeque Bay, PEI, Large Choice Malpeque Oysters are renowned for their size and flavor. These oysters have a deep "bowl" and a distinctive pointed "hinge" that holds the savory liquor, making them easy to shuck and visually appealing. They average 3.25 inches and are wild-harvested after 3 to 4 years of growth. With a moderate brine, a meaty bite, and a quick, clean finish, these oysters are a classic choice for oyster lovers. Malpeques gained international fame when they were judged the world’s tastiest oysters at the 1900 Paris exhibition, and they remain a premium choice today, harvested by hand with traditional tonging methods and purged before reaching the market.

Popped oysters best enjoyed within 6-8 hours of processing and fully shucked oysters best enjoyed within 1-2 hours of processing. 

Please note that processed (popped or shucked) oysters are only available for PICKUP orders and unprocessed for both PICKUP and DELIVERY. This is due to us being unable to guarantee all oysters upon delivery will arrive without liquor having spilled out and do not recommend processed oysters for delivery.
